Delayed wound healing means that the wound, cut, or scratch has difficulty healing or staying closed. This could be a sign of diabetes. And if accompanied by increased thirst and hunger as well as numbness or spasms in feet and hands, then it is crucial to see a doctor, who would check your blood sugar levels.

Other common explanations for why wounds just won’t heal include poor circulation, fluid buildup, poor immunity, infection, stress, lack of sleep, inflammation, and poor nutrition.

If your fingertips change in color (white, blue, or red), it could be a sign of Raynaud’s (ray-NOHZ) disease, which causes coldness of fingers and toes and can come along with tingling, numbness, and pain.

According to experts, Raynaud’s phenomenon occurs following a spasm of blood vessels and poor circulation, though the exact cause remains unknown. Treatment involves taking prescribed medication, wearing gloves, and avoiding smoking, emotional stress, and exposure to cold temperatures.

In worst cases, blue fingertips can indicate low oxygen levels in the body, and if accompanied by fever, it could signal pneumonia. And if it occurs after exercise, it might be an early sign of a long-term lung disease.

Stress as well as an overactive thyroid, which hastens your metabolism, stimulating more heat and burning extra calories, can make your palms sweaty.

However, excessive or frequent sweating should be reported to a medical professional. It could be a symptom of menopause or thyroid conditions, as well as hyperhidrosis, in which overactive sweat glands produce far more perspiration than needed.

Contact with bleach and other cleaning products can make your nails instantly weaker. But if your nails are often fragile without any external or obvious cause, you might have a zinc deficiency.
